November 2006 Hello RSO’s, In this packet you will find the information on the 2006 Regents Cup GullGating Championship. We take GullGating seriously around here and we hope you will too, so read over this packet of information and get the pickup ready because the Fishing Club is baiting anyone to challenge them on their fifth consecutive year and we have a new system for rewarding the most spirited Seagulls. This year there will be trophies or “Regents GullGating Champion Cup” awarded to the top three RSO’s. Also, if you are the champion, your RSO will be added to the plaque of champions hanging in the Office of Student Activities. Saddle up, get your giant Grills assembled now, Get the coolers out and cleaned and check the batteries in the megaphone.
